A little bribery never hurt anyone and to be honest Natasha could really go for something stiffer than normal and a night off too. rocket's got sharp enough hearing to make note of the tiny sigh of relief she gives when he doesn't lay into her for suggesting it in the first place. Listening to people bitch all day is her job and she signed up for it but it does get old after a while.
It's not the kind of attitude she would have tolerated before. She's been trying to be Better, though. Too late, maybe. But they're holding together so far.
"Thanks. With me would be best. I can drive us down to the city and get some shopping done after I clean this place up. See how many people we can get in touch with. ...Maybe find him something small for a gift if we get real lucky."
